A few pictures from Joe Courtney’s convention last night, which was, to say the very least, far better attended (and I suspect more enthusiastically) than its Republican counterpart. I wasn’t there, as I was doing my civic duty at the Charter Revision Commission meeting. These pictures were taken by Liz Duarte (Thanks Liz).

Okay, the above is a new feature in the latest version of WordPress. It’s called a gallery, and you can see the images larger if you click on them.
In case there’s any carpers out there: yes, these pictures are a trifle blurry, but they were taken with a cellphone, so they’re actually quite good, all things considered.
Joe said he would work like a dog during the election campaign, and I’m sure he will. It’s an odd thing that he had the closest victory of any Democrat two years ago, and now we run the risk of being complacent. Apparently that’s not a problem as far as Joe is concerned, and I don’t think it will be for the rest of us, if only because, besides re-electing Joe, we’ll be working so hard to put a Democrat in the White House. For Joe, an overwhelming victory margin might discourage top flight competition in 2010, when things might be a bit tougher for Democrats, assuming they win the White House this year.
